A Truly Unforgettable Stay in a Slice of Paradise

Our time at your beautiful villa in Sami, Kefalonia, was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the peace, beauty, and sense of welcome that surrounded us. The villa itself was elegant, comfortable, and immaculately maintained, with every detail thoughtfully considered to ensure a perfect stay.But what truly took our breath away were the exceptional views—sweeping panoramas over Sami, with the sparkling Ionian Sea stretching endlessly beyond. Whether we were enjoying morning coffee on the terrace or watching the sun set in golden hues over the horizon, every moment felt serene and special.We are deeply grateful for the care and warmth extended to us during our stay. Your villa offered the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and natural beauty—a place to truly unwind and reconnect. It was a privilege to spend time in such a stunning setting, and we leave with full hearts and beautiful memories.So thank you Kalina and Spiros not forgetting Kalina’s mum who made sure we had fresh towels and linen when required. Thank you for sharing your little corner of heaven with us. We can’t wait to return.Kind RegardsAndrew and Janet

The villa is beautiful and the pictures do not do it justice, which is why I rated the accuracy of online listing as 3. The view is stunning and the villa is fully equipped with everything you need. The pool is brilliant as it isn't very deep so great for younger children. Spiros is a great host and exceptionally welcoming - thank you :). We had such a great time that we are going back next year.

Fabulous villa!

This is an amazing place to stay - even better than the photos! Spiros is an incredible host and a wonderful person! He, his family and his team at Il Familia went out of their way to make our stay really unforgettable.Their generosity, kindness and warmth, as well as the fantastic food at Il Familia, which has a wonderful view of the harbour, was incredible. We explored the island fully - Assos, Fiscardo, Myrtos and Antisamos beach, Agia Efemia, the monastery at Agios Gerasimos, as well as seeing turtles in the bay of Argostoli. These were all fantastic, but the best experience was the self-drive boat hire from Sami from Pirates, which was great for exploring hidden beaches and coves. However, relaxing in the villa with its amazing views of sea and mountains, perfect for dawns and sunsets, and relaxing in its incredible garden, with swallows, bouganvilleia and lavender - as well as meeting Spiros - was the absolute highlight of this holiday! I cannot recommend enough.

The villa is nicely furnished and well equipped and the pool is lovely. Spiros and his team at his restaurant are kind and generous and made us feel very welcome. A car is essential as the villa is 5 minutes drive out of town, but the lhe location is an excellent base to explore the north and north west coast and to take the ferry to Ithaca.

The outside space is gorgeous, lovely pool and sunbeds, the gazebo is ideal to relax in out of the sun, and the views, wow! Spiros the owner cannot do enough for you, can highly recommend his restaurant il familia in Sami, right by the water.

Fabulous Villa With A Lovely View Over Sami Bay

Villa Nina is located in Katapodata, just a few kilometres outside Sami. It is perfect for couples or families of four, and has a breathtaking view over the Sami Bay. It is well equipped, with hotel quality furniture, and a private pool, complete with a pagoda and barbecue. The owner, Spyros, who also has the Il Familia restaurant in Sami, is very attentive to your needs, and responds quickly to any queries using the VRBO app. My wife and I spent a gorgeous three weeks at the villa, and spent about a third of our time there - the other two thirds on day trips going around the island. The nearest significant beach is Anti Samos, where Captain Corelli's Mandolin was filmed. A car is pretty essential here. Highly recommended.

What an incredible view!

The villa is charming and just what we needed when we extended our holiday in Sami. The villa is about 2 miles inland from Sami in a small village, in the hills overlooking the bay and the whole of Sami area. It means you will need a car, but the few minutes drive are worthwhile if you like a spectacular view. The open plan layout on ground floor is perfect for enjoying the amazing view over Sami port and Ithaca in the distance. The owner, Spiros, is also the owner of the best restaurant in Sami, Il Familia, which is another bonus. He is a very generous host and made us feel very welcome. We didn't have any real problems when we there, but Spiros was always quick to respond to messages asking simple questions etc. Overall I would highly recommend the villa for a small family or 2 couples.

Best accommodation I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. Everything was perfect and I intend returning. We were treated like family and I couldn't think of anything I would change.

Great Villa

The villa was very comfortable and had everything you needed for your holiday! The pool was lovely, and villa and pool kept clean, but we were left alone to have our privacy. There were a few minor things that needed fixing, that could have been an issue if we had small children, but our teenagers were old enough for it not to be a problem. Would recommend this villa for a pleasant week’s stay in Kefalonia.
